Gandini vs. Garcia

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Up at the feature table, Day 1a chip leader Jose Carlos Garcia opened for 13,000 from the button and was met by a three-bet to 87,000 by Filippo Gandini in the small blind. Garcia gave it some thought before making the call, and the cards were turned on their backs.

Gandini: {q-Spades}{10-Spades}
Garcia: {a-Spades}{4-Spades}

Gandini needed some help, and he got it when the {k-Spades}{j-Hearts}{9-Spades} flop gave him a straight. However, Garcia did pick up the better flush draw. The {K-Hearts} turn was safe for Gandini, and so was the {A-Hearts} river. Ship the double to the Italian.
